Page 6: Intended Use
Only qualified event technicians are permitted to suspend a VIDA L system. Warning When suspending VIDA L speakers, be sure to use the mounting components described in these user's manual.

Warning Please be sure to mount to a K&F VIDA L Slimline half coupler (K&F item #36137) only! Attach the pipe clip to the VIDA L mounting bracket/handhold only using the supplied pipe- clip screw. Only screws of that type are specifically made and tested for mounting a pipe clip to a VIDA L bracket/handhold.
Page 11: Mounting To A Truss Or Pipe
K&F VIDA L Mounting Bracket/Handhold Mounting to a Truss or Pipe Be sure to use the K&F VIDA L Slimline half coupler (K&F item #36137) for mounting the speaker systems to trusses or pipes! The pipe clips specified by KLING & FREITAG are designed for customary pipe surfaces and diameters of 48 to 51 mm.
Page 12 User's Manual K&F VIDA L Mounting Bracket/Handhold Warning Example 2: When VIDA L speakers are used in combination with VIDA C, note that you can attach the pipe clips laterally only. This single-sided attachment of pipe clips necessitates vertical speaker placement.
Page 13: Mounting To A Truss
User's Manual K&F VIDA L Mounting Bracket/Handhold Example 4: If you want to suspend VIDA L speakers with VIDA C horizontally as an array, be sure to mount pipe clips to both ends of the speaker and fix these appropriately to trusses or rig pipes.
Page 14: Mounting On The Ground
User's Manual K&F VIDA L Mounting Bracket/Handhold Where struts are obstructive, move the mounting brackets/handholds as necessary to vary the pipe-clip positions. Tighten the bolts to a 16 Nm torque. Warning Attach the pipe clips to the truss one by one.
Page 15 Interconnect the speakers as described in the VIDA L Speaker user's manual. Note that moving the mounting brackets/handholds might be necessary in order to freely position the speakers to the truss.
Page 16 User's Manual K&F VIDA L Mounting Bracket/Handhold Secure the M12 nut by hand- tighten the butterfly nut against the nut. Check all pipe clips carefully for secure fit. Danger! Risk of injury from falling objects! Improperly mounted speakers are not safe for suspending.
